He walks into the living room and June is dead. He centres her,
checking the light. Focusing, he clicks the shutter. He'll ask
himself later, if he knew. It's easy to say that he had acted
without thinking, out of instinct. Rook Henderson is an
award-winning photographer, still carrying the hidden scars of war.
Now, suddenly, he is also a widower. Leaving his son Ralph to pick
up the pieces, Rook flies to Vietnam for the first time in fifty
years, escaping to the landscape of a place he once knew so well.
But when Ralph follows him out there, seeking answers from the
father he barely knows, Rook is forced to unwind his past: his
childhood in Yorkshire, his life in London in the 1960s and his
marriage to the unforgettable June - and to ask himself what price
he has paid for a life behind the lens ...Gripping, evocative and
unforgettable, The Last Photograph is a story of a life shaped by
trauma and love - and the secrets that make us who we are.
